I bought a piece of the island down Matagorda way before the floods came. That put off my building a house down on the island. Well the floods have gone and the house was moved and rebuilt. Its time! I got the piers, beams and floor joists delivered yesterday. November 22 I have my rock star building crew headed out to get started. I am super excited. This place should give me the rest of my years some fairly good bay duck hunting.[Linked Image]

That’s awesome! Can’t wait to see what it looks like once completed.

Cool. As said, post pics. I'm close to retirement age and thinking about a place down there to escape to every once in a while.

Progress will be kind of slow. My goal is to have the foundation up to the floor joists installed before spring. Then after the spring and fall snake clinics I will have enough money to take it to dried in (thats framed, sheathed, tyvek on ext walls, roof decked and metal roof installed, doors and windows.) I want the dried in finished by spring after next.

Wow. This should be even better than the duck blind build. Look forward to progress and pics.
